The 9th Louis Pasteur Conference: Emerging Infectious Diseases will be held in Paris (France) on April 9-11, 2014.
The Institut Pasteur has always been at the frontier of emerging infectious disease discovery and the 2008 Nobel Price of Medicine and Physiology is a living proof of the continuous effort the institution has devoted to emerging infectious diseases since its creation 125 years ago. Nevertheless, a few decades ago, emerging infectious diseases were not the subject of interest they are today. In the last decade, however, the landscape has changed, witnessed by the resurgence or emergence of new infectious diseases. This has led to increased institutional support of research in this area that has not only improved public health but has also provided a better understanding of the scope of the problem. Sharing and disseminating this recent knowledge within the scientific community is essential.
The conference will gather a broad range of participants: senior scientists, young investigators and students working in bacterial, parasitic and viral emerging diseases as well as dedicated sessions on vectors and on the impact of climate change in epidemics.
